Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

ANZAC GatesPrint Page 

The ANZAC Gates were erected to commemorate those who served in World War One.
Tomorrow afternoon the Governor (Sir Walter Davidson) will be present at two functions in Petersham-the opening of ANZAC Gates in Petersham Park, and the unveiling of a trophy gun in Petersham Town Hall. The gates are in memory of the men who left Petersham and fought in the war; the gun was captured from the German army during the attack on the Hindenburg outpost line on September 8, 1918.
